Lesson of the Week: Sam Bellamy- Trying to Undo Years of Unwanted Swing Patterns

You probably read the title to this video and chuckled. “No kidding, years of unwanted swing patterns you say…join the club”. Sam, however, has quite the interesting background when it comes to golf, having played in college and tried the mini tours afterwards, only to find that he could not shoot the kind of scores necessary to making a living as a competitor. He quit for a while, then came back to the game but has seen the quality of his ball striking and overall scoring ability get worse. He has been a member of the website for several years and has tried to work himself out of his normal patterns, but they have proven to be quite stubborn to rework on his own. Thus, he made the 3 ½ hour drive down from Orlando to get some face to face time with me, and although the video did not change completely after two hours he was encouraged by his new understanding of his backswing and how it looked in the stop and go drills we tried.
